Issue Getting Delta5 to work

[blakermchale]

I've been trying to get the app to run by following the Software Setup Guide, but when in the settings this error keeps occurring. This only happens in the settings, and I'm unable to add pilots or heats. None of python files were changed after cloning

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hello,

I can confim that I have the same issue: I started with a clean install of raspbian strech Version: November 2018 Release date: 2018-11-13 and installed Delta 5 according to the instructions :"Hardware and Software Setup Instructions". I also tried different browsers: Firefox, Chrome still the same issue. I'm also unable to shut down the raspi by the gui buttons. Furthermore, all the calibration values fields are empty. The connection to the arduinos seems to work fine... (when i connect them they get shown in the setting tab. However, it is not possible to assign frequencies.) Also the timingserver used for the connection to Livetime doesn't work.

If anybody can offer help it would be highly appreciated

Thanks

edit: i removed the sercive agian and tried to start it by python server.py in the delta5_race_timer/src/delta5server/ and the python program terminates with an error after finding the Nodes: pi@lapcounter:~/delta5_race_timer/src/delta5server $ python server.py Node FOUND at address 8 Node FOUND at address 10 Node FOUND at address 12 Node FOUND at address 14 No node at address 16 No node at address 18 No node at address 20 No node at address 22 Number of nodes found: 4 Default frequencies set Traceback (most recent call last): File "server.py", line 1213, in db_reset_current_laps() File "server.py", line 1151, in db_reset_current_laps DB.session.query(CurrentLap).delete() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sqlalchemy/orm/query.py", line 3353, in delete delete_op.exec_() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sqlalchemy/orm/persistence.py", line 1335, in exec_ self._do_exec() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sqlalchemy/orm/persistence.py", line 1527, in _do_exec self._execute_stmt(delete_stmt) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sqlalchemy/orm/persistence.py", line 1342, in _execute_stmt mapper=self.mapper) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sqlalchemy/orm/session.py", line 1187, in execute bind, close_with_result=True).execute(clause, params or {}) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sqlalchemy/engine/base.py", line 948, in execute return meth(self, multiparams, params) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sqlalchemy/sql/elements.py", line 269, in _execute_on_connection return connection._execute_clauseelement(self, multiparams, params) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sqlalchemy/engine/base.py", line 1060, in _execute_clauseelement compiled_sql, distilled_params File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sqlalchemy/engine/base.py", line 1200, in _execute_context context) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sqlalchemy/engine/base.py", line 1413, in _handle_dbapi_exception exc_info File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sqlalchemy/util/compat.py", line 265, in raise_from_cause reraise(type(exception), exception, tb=exc_tb, cause=cause) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sqlalchemy/engine/base.py", line 1193, in _execute_context context) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/sqlalchemy/engine/default.py", line 509, in do_execute cursor.execute(statement, parameters) sqlalchemy.exc.OperationalError: (sqlite3.OperationalError) attempt to write a readonly database [SQL: u'DELETE FROM current_lap'] (Background on this error at: http://sqlalche.me/e/e3q8)

edit2: as it seamed at first glance like a problem accessing the database i gave the src folder a recursive chmod 777 such that all files can be accessed. Thereby, the previous error disappers however the GUI still doesn't work.

Did you notice any errors during the requirements.txt install portion? If you're looking for an easier method, there is an sd card image file made from my install on the pinned post of the facebook post. Just write it to your sd card, and it should have everything configured. Just a note my sd card was a 32gb card.

I didn't noticed any errory during the install of requirements.txt and if i ran this command again it writes out that everything is allready installed... I have no facebook account and, therfore, i will try now the image from https://github.com/spuder/pi-gen

The image from https://github.com/spuder/pi-gen did not work either...

However i tried a new install of raspian and it worked now. I have no clue what i made different. Thank you for your support

Hi Scott, I'm getting similar issues.

I've got it working now. Not quite sure how, but here are some of the steps I downgraded from the RPi 3 Model B+ to the standard RPi 3 Model B and started again. I followed all the instructions and everything went well without errors. But the web server still wouldn't serve.

I then removed the whole delta5_race_timer directory rm -r ~/delta5_race_timer ... and reinstalled it cd ~ git clone https://github.com/scottgchin/delta5_race_timer.git cd /home/pi/delta5_race_timer/src sudo chmod 777 delta5server sudo reboot

After the reboot, it all sprung to life.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but I think the database got corrupted in the first install and the second re-install started with a clean one.

Maybe, I'm missing the mark, but anyway, in case it's any use to anyone else, this worked for me (after a lot of trial and error).
